This includes monitoring compute, storage, networking, and application resources; establishing performance baselines; troubleshooting bottlenecks; right-sizing resources; and implementing improvements to maximize security, scalability, availability and operational efficiency. They will be required to provide documentation and mentoring to IT staff. The engineer will provide technical leadership, troubleshoot complex infrastructure issues, perform root-cause analysis, and coordinate with vendors when needed.
  • The engineer will establish and maintain cloud monitoring, automation, security, governance, and operational standards. This includes Azure monitoring and logging, infrastructure-as-code, architecture documentation, and compliance with enterprise security and governance requirements.
  • The engineer may be asked to leverage AI and intelligent automation within the Azure ecosystem to improve infrastructure engineering and operations. This includes using Azure Copilot, Azure Monitor AI capabilities, and other AI services to assist with infrastructure analysis, performance monitoring, troubleshooting, anomaly detection, capacity and cost optimization, migration planning, network analysis, and operational automation. The engineer will identify opportunities to safely incorporate AI into infrastructure management while maintaining appropriate security, governance, human oversight, and change controls.
  • The technician will be required to work with minimal supervision and in a collaborative environment with other IT and Information Security staff, and will be required to work overtime upon request.
